The improvements, part of the state government's Transport Access Program (TAP), aim to boost accessibility and safety for customers.
"We've already seen more than $2 billion committed to TAP upgrades since 2011, with more than 470 projects either completed or currently underway across NSW," Regional Transport Minister Paul Toole said.

"Now we're planning for a further nine at Casino, Dubbo, Grafton, Griffith, Gunnedah, Narrabri, Moree, Queanbeyan and Taree, which will create 450 jobs.
"That's about $23 million directly back into those local economies, which will make a real difference during these challenging times."
The minister said a "variety of goods, services and materials" were needed for the station upgrades.
"So I hope that local businesses in these towns register their interest and get involved," he said.
